The Purpose of Prime Timers
We are a local Chapter of Prime Timers World Wide that provides mature gay and bisexual men (and their admirers) opportunities to come together in a supportive atmosphere to enjoy social, educational, and recreational activities.
For the first time, Prime Timers St. Louis will have a float in PrideFest with member riders and members marching alongside and behind the float. Volunteers are needed to ride and walk. See the calendar listing for details.

Our members create a multiplicity of events and activities. We strive to insure a variety of affordable events such that every member can find interesting activities with which to be able to actively participate and enjoy friendship and fellowship with other older gay and bi men. Examples of activities enjoyed by Prime Timers include:
Monthly Brunches Potlucks, dining out nights and picnics.
Movies, Plays, Game Nights (Bridge, Board & Card Games.)
Monthly Meetings with Education and Social Fellowship Hours.
Local trips to museums, walking tours and other points of interest.
Woody Baldwin, founder of Prime Timers World Wide has said “Even if you coordinate an event and only four men go to it, that event is a success because those four men got to do something they enjoy and were not sitting at home alone.”
Outdoor Activities (Cycling, Camping, Hiking, Golf)
Out of Town Trips by carpooling, bus & train, Cruises
Day Trips to the countryside and nearby towns
And more activities to meet our changing interests

Prime Timers is not a religous or political organization. However, it is concerned with the impact that social, economic and political changes have on us as aging gay and bisexual men. Examples of topics discussed at monthly meetings include:
Health – weight management and healthy food choices.
Travel – gay friendly destinations and ideas on a budget.
Medicare and drug benefit, Long Term Care — Navigating the Maze
Staying active and building supportive social networks.
Medical, Dental, Vision, prescription drug Issues for Seniors
Financial Planning – a secure and fiscally sound retirement.
Legal – the need for wills, trusts, and powers of attorney.
Current events — impacting your life and future well-being.
Our Monthly Membership meeting is the 2nd Saturday of each month.
